Speaking of this draft I've been watching Shabazz so far this year and saw him in person 2 nights ago and every time I have come away unimpressed (relative to expectations I suppose). He has put up some decent scoring numbers, but he seems to rely solely on his size/athletic/strength advantages over his opponents. He also has NO right hand at the moment. He goes left every time and gets away with it by simply powering through his opponent because he can at this level.

One thing I will give him is that he seems to play hard and tries to assert himself on offense. As a result he gets a good amount of tough points on loose balls/offensive rebounds...etc.

I hope he can develop and refine his game, but he is far more raw than I had expected coming in.

"MVP Candidate" Melo is scoring 2.8 more PPG than Harden on 2.7 more shots, so he's really not that inefficient when you factor how good he is at getting to the line. And you want a guy who can create for others and score efficiently, neither of which Crawful can do.

Harden has been incredibly inefficient. He turns the ball over so much, shoot so many bad balls. I'm a Houston fan and have watched about half of the games so far. They need to play him off the ball more and not let him hold the ball. Sometimes he gets into a mode of ball stopping and he'll just hold the ball for almost the whole shot clock then go iso.

Harden actually isn't that inefficient. His true shooting % is still in the top 20 for SG and he has played about as inefficient as he ever will...he'll likely end the year in the top 10-15 range which is really pretty good considering just how much of the offensive burden falls on his shoulders.

Perfect. He will come to te Kings and team up with Evans who has no left hand. With 2 severely flawed wings, maybe the Kings can make 1 game changing wing.
